BOKU NO HERO: ANIME AT IT’S PRIME





 I’m not sure if I mentioned this on my blog before but I used to hate boku no hero so bad,I thought it was cheesy and very childish. Well at first glance it certainly looks that way so I do not completely blame ignorant me for thinking so you know?. For those familiar with this anime,I complained about everything from the basic concept of quirks to the complexity of why the students of U.A wanted to be heroes.

When I first started watching it,I dumped it at episode 8 because I did not find it interesting enough and then boom!,one day out of boredom I decided to pick up from episode 8 and damn I could not miss a single scene. Boku no hero is so special because it is that it manages to have the ingredients of Anime like Hunter x Hunter,Naruto,One Piece,e.t.c but it also manages to still be very unique and entertaining.


 It has the potential to run for many many many seasons,I think the story of Midoriya and his classmates training at U.A to become heroes simply resonates with people because it is simple and also imaginative. I think every kid at least had that one hero dream moment. I love the way BNH sheds more light on characters,they don’t drag it till the instead it feels like feeler,instead it actually feels important and gives characters extra layers.


  To me the creator of this anime certainly got inspired by a lot of things for one,Endeavour the second best hero is obviously based of from Fire Lord Ozai I mean they are both abusive fathers of powers who put their sons through so much emotional trauma growing up not only by isolating their wives,but also by forcing their sons into becoming better warriors.



All might the number one hero is the representation of a true hero who on the outside seems untouchable but is actually fragile and even at that,will do whatever it takes to protect people. A lot of heroes can be said to fit this description but to me superman best fits it.


 You also have the Rivalry between Bakugo and Midoriya which I like to call infant Sasuke v Naruto. I call it infant because their rivalry is still in it’s basic stage it isn’t mature yet. Bakugo is still the sasuke who is naturally gifted and often discriminate others and likes being a loner while Midoriya is still the Naruto who will still keep fighting no matter how it gets even if the chances of success are slim and that is because,that is his hero way…..he will do anything to protect his classmates and innocent people.


  I also think Tokoyami the dark shadow bearer is very similar to Neji, in the sense that they are both generally excellent and well focused students who have the potential to be the best but have some inner control issues to work about before they can get to where they want. Okay am getting off track and all but I couldn’t help but gush about this anime that I once hated. I love it so much now that I have the temptation to read the manga due to weekly release of episodes and am hardly ever interested in doing that.

 In summary Boku no hero is a great anime because it has all the ingredients and it uses those ingredients excellently. From its rich characters,great comedy and epic battles….everything about this anime is fun,upbeat and engaging!.



   Sorry for taking a while to post this,I know I talked about making a post covering my opinion on it but I forgot but as I woke up a couple of minutes ago,I got inspired to write all these just because I’ve wanted to for a while now. What do you think? Do you agree with me? Do you like the character comparisons or do you think am exaggerating. Do not be shy, tell me what you think.

Mowgli:Legend Of The Jungle

Written By
  Mowgli legend of the jungle is an adaptation of the book "The Jungle Book" by Rudyard Kipling which inspired the creation of the Disney classic of the same name.  That said Disney classic got the live action treatment sometimes last year and it got praised for it faithfully stating true to the Disney classic and for its incredibly photorealistic CGI.  Mowgli tells the story of the jungle book again but this time, it isn't based on the Disney film but rather the original source material by Rudyard Kipling.  Disney's the jungle book wasn't a straight up faithful adaptation but it managed to stick to major plot points of the book and this film tries to flesh out those plot points by giving all the characters a realistic backstory that doesn't make characters beside the Man Cub feel like they're only there for plot convenience.  I haven't read book by Rudyard Kipling but I know this film is a more faithful adaptation than the Disney film.   Dire...

STRANGER THINGS 2

Written By
   A lot of movies and shows are set in the past these days but in my own opinion, none of them really do it like STRANGER THINGS. If you remove the acting,the amazing plot,and chemistry, what you're left with is these show that has a very '80s feel because of the overall sound from the show and visuals.      Season 2 is a blast and it simply perfected the formula season 1 set which is, simple plot,great characters,good chemistry and amazing(classic)music. My face everytime Dustin jokes       The Season starts a year after and all our characters are basically trying to settle on after the ending of the first season. Mike's still trying to communicate with Eleven, Will is bullied in school, he's called "zombie boy", Lucas is well still Lucas and Dustin has teeth now,"Prrrr"(you'll get the joke soon enough)       I'll try not to be very spoiler-y so let's start up!!!. •MAX AND BILLY     The dick The new...

First Listen: Lil Yachty - Let's Start Here.

Written By
 woah. brother broccoli starts 2023 with something totally unexpected: a psychedelic rock album. lil yachty said in an interview (with someone i don't remember) that he just wants to be taken seriously, as a musician. it's a little sad when someone puts their all into a craft, sometimes even create a groundbreaking sound, but still get termed the bare minimum or worse, "mumble rapper." while this album is beautiful, it's not as stellar as other projects in the same genre. but music is more than that. it's also the process, emotions, message, etc. brother broccoli took a risk to make what he wants/feels and he succeeded. that's what makes this album a beauty asides the wonky ai art and trying-hard-to-stay-in-the-flow lyricism . the features ate. the producers brought their a-game. the engineers blessed the record. since poland, it's clear that yachty decided to broaden his scope and make not just music he loves, but quality. i definitely respect his art...

The Emoji Movie

Written By
   Yes,I have been evading this for so long but my little sister just watched the movie and she thoroughly enjoyed it,especially the dance scene and the candy crush game segment, she laughed a lot and felt like it was a fun movie. I actually watched it a while back but I've been mute because I didn't feel a need to talk about it but after seeing how my sister enjoyed it,I feel my thoughts are needed so now I have to give my opinion(emphasis on "my opinion").     Before I personally watched this bizarre movie I checked all the reviews so as to see what I was getting into(bare in mind,I don't make opinions based on reviews of "critics"). All the reviews I read bashed it and called it bad movie,saying it was just a gigantic advertisement Sony used to market their items......let's be honest is that a bad thing?,let's think about it...it's called the emoji movie,it's about freaking emojis,where do we see emojis? Well you guessed right! We...
